epac19 asked:


Up to what wavelength of infrared light does a camcorder filter out?

Also, does infrared light between 1350-1650nm have harmful effects on humans?

If so, what side effects are experienced and what can be done to remedy the problem?

Also, does anyone know where I can get infrared producing LEDs?

Thanks for your time.

Gracia asked:


I was recording something with the charger plugged in, and I am not sure what happened but I heard some sort of quick sizzle sound and now whenever I plug anything into the port the camera turns off. I have gotten a separate battery charger but is my port now forever useless? Is this common? Do you have any idea how it could have happened?

I am more than likely purchasing a Technaxx X16. I was just wondering if anyone has had one or had any experience with one?
Good quality?

Thanks!
